Today: [Titus 1:] The Qualifications of a Leader: In the first chapter of Titus we find Paul addressing what the qualifications of a leader should be. Bishops in Paul’s day were very different from our idea of bishops today. They were elders in a committee of elders responsible for overseeing the church in a given city. Paul instructs Titus as an apostle to set things in order among the elders in this region as well as dealing with various strains of legalism that are disturbing the peace of the churches under Titus supervision.
